Scorching sun, heat waves leaves an ugly impact on our skin making it look dull, tanned, patched and parched. Here are some of the easy treats to follow and have glowing skin throughout the season.
Here are some Skin Treatments for harsh Indian summers :
1. Nourish Your Skin With Oils
Avocado, olive or coconut oils are the best source of Vitamin C and E. The most exposed area to the sun is the face and hands but the most affected areas are elbows, knees, and ankles. Application of oils on daily basis is recommended to maintain smooth, baby-like skin and help flaunt them in sleeveless tops.
2. Keep the Skin Hydrated
During summers, the body gets dehydrated often in about 3-4 hours and excessive heat causes the oil glands to secrete extra oil. Thus we are left with dirty and dull skin by end of the day. For keeping the skin healthy, clean and glowing throughout the day, drink plenty of water and wash your face with water as often as you can.
3. Natural Cleanser
Pimples, tanning and many other skin traumas arise in the summer. Treat them with natural remedies and cleanse them regularly. Papaya is one of the most beneficial ingredients in skin treatments. Squash papaya and apply on the face, hands and feet and leave it for 10-15 minutes and rinse with water. The application of this pack is best fruitful during the morning and evening before bedtime.
4. Routine life
Insufficient sleep and an unhealthy lifestyle leave marks on the skin under the eyes like dark circles. Avoid aerated drinks, late nights and junk food. A healthy lifestyle is the key to maintain healthy skin.
